RANGE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 228,268, dated June 1,1880.

' Application filed April 6,1880. (No model.)

To all whom t may concern Beit known that l', DAVID H. NATION, of St.Louis, Missouri, have made a new and use- I'ul Improvement in Ranges, otwhich the fol- 5 lowing is a full, clear, and exact description,reference being had to the annexed drawings, making part ot' thisspeciiication, in which- Figure I is a top View of the improved range, aportion of the top plate being rerc moved; Fig. 2, a bottom View of therange,

the bottom plate being removed; Fig. 3, avertical section taken on theline m x of Fig. 1, and Fig. 4 a vertical section taken on the line y yof Fig. 1.

15 The same letters denote the same parts.

.I have heretofore made an improvement in ranges which combined theadvantages of a three-tlue cookstove and a range.

The present construction is a modification 2o of the one referred to,and it combines the following special advantages: The upper corner ofthe oven is not cut into, as in the former construction. There are sixboiler-holes, all of which receive the direct heat from the fire- 2 5place, and the entire range is very compact and readily made.

Referring to the drawings, A represents the improved range, B being thefire-place, C the flue leading from the lire-place, D the 3o oven, E Ethe diving-fines, F F the side bottom tlucs, G the center bottom flue, Hthe ascending tlue, and I the escape-flue. The latter is arranged justbeyond the entrances to the diving-dues, and it leads from the center ofthe range, at the end a thereof, 3 5 to the back a of the range, andthence along the back to the final exit a2. The iiue is formed by meansotl the end plate, a3, strip a4 a5, and plate a6. The direct entrance tothe escapeflue is at a", which can be closed by the damper 4o J. Theascending tlue H connects with the tlue I at h.

The direct draft from the due O to the exit a2 is indicated by thearrows in Fig. I, the damper in such case being turned down, 0pen- 45ing the entrance a7 and closing the passage h'.

To heat the oven the damper is turned up, as in Fig. 4, and the draft isthen through the iiues E E, F F, G, H, and I to the exit a.

I claim-f 5o 1. The combination, in a range, of the iiues O and I, theformer extending from the fireplace beyond the boiler-holes, and thelatter extending along the end a ot` the range and thence along the backa', substantially as de- 55 scribed.

2. The combination of the lues O E E F F G H .I and the damper J, saidtiue I being arranged beyond the diving-dues E E and extending along theend a and back a of the 6o range, substantially as described.
